Julia Fox Garrison refused to listen to the professionals she called Dr. Jerk and Dr. Panic, who—after she suffered a massive, debilitating stroke at age thirty-seven—told her she'd probably die, or to Nurse Doom, who ignored her emergency call button. Instead she heeded the advice of kind, gifted Dr. Neuro, who promised her he would "treat your mind as well as your body." Julia figured if she could somehow manage to get herself into a wheelchair, at least she'd always find parking. But after many, many months of hospitalization and rehab—with the help of family, friends, and her own indomitable spirit—Julia not only got into a wheelchair, but she got back out.
Don't Leave Me This Way is the funny, inspiring, profoundly moving true story of a woman's fight for her life and dignity—and her determined quest to awaken an entrenched, unfeeling medical community to the fact that there's always a human being inside every patient.

Don't Leave Me This Way: Or When I Get Back on My Feet You'll Be Sorry
What an remarkable book by a truly amazing woman! Julia is inspiring. She brings you through her whole experience with her massive brain hemorrhage in a very in-depth but extremely interesting way. Just as she had experienced it so that I found myself wondering if she was going to make it even though I had seen her speak at a NH Brain Injury Conference so I knew her outcome. You really felt the emotions she went through and the mystery around her injury and that kept me engaged from word one to the end. Her spirit in the face of such devastation is awe inspiring as she called her hemorrhage a gift. I don't know too many people who can walk hang on to the attitude when staring possible death. She had to face life with a extremely impaired body and get through all the challenges that came with that and her positive attitude was evident every step of the way. I'll say it again one amazing woman who shared her remarkable story for all of us to learn from.
